Random Questions with Your OCs (but sfw tho): Question #44

Rai_Muffin 2024-05-15 00:18:59 UTC #21

Q1 - Is hot cocoa dessert?

Rose - Of course not! Stupid question.
Keanu - Yeah, it's a beverage.
Natsumi - I mean, I've had cocoa after a meal before.
Rose - But the rest of us have tea and coffee. You know, drinks.
Kukui - Is soup a drink?
Keanu - I mean...I guess?
Natsumi - That makes sense! Cocoa is like the soup of dessert!
Rose - What? No! That's dumb!
Natsumi - You're face is dumb! Maybe that's dessert!
Fuyumi - Can we move on to the next question, please? Let's not fall out over this.
Rose - How about I make your face soup? Tenderise it a little!
Natsumi - My face isn't sweet, so it's not dessert, idiot!
Keanu - Pretty sure she wasn't claiming that.
Lok - Are marshmallows in cocoa analogous to croutons?
Keanu - Not helping!
Kukui - I'm hungry now...

Q2 - How often should you shower/change your clothes?

Natsumi - They're both food you drink! How is this a big deal?
Rose - Because it's a dumb idea and you're dumb for thinking it!
Keanu - We've moved on to the next question.
Natsumi - Why can't you accept that it can be both?
Rose - Because words mean things! You can't just redefine beverage to whatever you like!
Lok - In my experience, excessive bathing can give your position away to the enemy.
Keanu - It's also a good way to get your ass exiled from camp.
Kukui - He smells like a tree.
Fuyumi - I change my outfit every day, though it's hard to bathe in the wild.
Keanu - We've worn the same outfits every day for the past month!
Fuyumi - My hoodie and jacket are the same but the shirt underneath is different.
Natsumi - #cocoaissoup!
Rose - That's not a thing! It's never going to be a thing!
Kukui - You can join us when we go bathing in lakes and stuff.
Fuyumi - ...that's fine. I can wait.
Keanu - Why? It's not like the artist is going to draw you nude.
Natsumi - THIS IS THE HILL I DIE ON!!!

What is the most irrational thing you're legitimately afraid of.

Alicia: I don't know that this is irrational, but I am terrified of my wrap dress coming unwrapped in public, or anywhere where I'm not completely alone. I won't even wear "Real" wrap dresses because this happened to me once while I was leaving my bathroom. Thank heavens I live alone.

Melissa: Girl that is a very real fear. Don't get me started about how afraid I am of my dress accidentally getting tucked up in my waist band whenever I wear tights. OH! and a garter coming undone and making your stocking fall down and puddle around your ankles. Or losing an earring when you're cooking. Ugh! but my absolute biggest fear is that my dog will turn into a werewolf at some point and absolutely devour me. He's a sweetheart, but it's pretty scary to run into him pacing the living room in the middle of the night when he's awake for no good reason whatsoever.

Kattar: Yeahhh, well maybe that thing where you touch something really cold with wet hands and your skin freezes to it. This basically never happens, so it might be irrational, but the two times it's happened to me I was really afraid of losing part of my skin.

Andrew: That every creak of the floor boards is a stranger walking around the house? I know it's just the wood flexing as the temperature changes, but Jinho's not heavy enough to make the floor creak so every single time I would hear them when I first moved into my grandpa's old place I would wake up wondering who was walking around.

Jinho: That the visa laws will suddenly change and make it completely unaffordable to be a long-term resident outside of my home country.

Andrew: That's not irrational, buddy. The economy is insane.

Leia: I don't think this is irrational, but crashing into something full-speed on my bicycle and completely destroying my face.

Riley: I'm always afraid my bed frame is going to break. I know it's stupid, but it groans like a ten million year old man every time I lay down, and I just think it's this close to it's end.

For Wild Nights, Hot and Crazy Days (the OC is me):

Q: Is Hot Chocolate a dessert?
A: No, I drink hot chocolate like others drink coffee. I don't drink coffee, so when somebody makes a coffee run I always get HC.

Q: How often do you shower/change your clothes?
A: Shower/bath: Daily. I have a dirty job, so a nice bath at the end of the day to wash that transmission fluid and gear oil out of my hair is a necessity.
Clothes: I will wear the same T-shirt and pants for a week, but with a caveat: Work supplies us with uniforms, so I wear my "street" clothes to work, change into my uniform, then at the end of the work day I change back into my street clothes, wear them home, and after supper and a walk with the dog, I get into the bath. Because I only wear the clothes for about two hours a day I use the same ones all week. At weekends I wear different clothes.

Q: Irrational fears?
A: Heights. I am generally fearless, except when it comes to heights. I have always joked that I walk with a slouch because even my own height scares me. Even still, though, when I need to overcome this fear I do (such as when I built my house and had to build the roof) but the entire time I am elevated so is my heart rate.

For Daecon of Finding Daecon's Way (answered in first person):

Q: Hot chocolate/dessert?
A: Hot chocolate isn't even food, man, unless you're eight years old. Gimme coffee. In fact, gimme lots of coffee.

Q: Clothes/Shower?
A: Several times daily for each, but that has changed since my powers as a Dunamis have come in because it is not necessary (they tell me that my person cannot be soiled, and so far it seems to be true - when I shower the water beads and runs right off)

Q: Irrational fears?
A: My biggest fear is that I will be a failure as a leader of the Shapeshifters. They keep telling me that I was born for it, but I sure don't feel like it...

Leyelle 2024-05-15 20:51:20 UTC #26

I don't drink coffee a lot either, i'm more of a tea person

no it's not food, it's a drink lol.

Ozwald: inhales deeply skatebords and skateborders

Higen: The what now?

Ozwald: shussss I knew when we came to the human realm that they would have more advanced things than us, but a board should not be rolling on the ground is very dangerous, and I... I am afraid if I stepped on one I would hurt myself badly... and for the skaters, I don't know if they managed to gain dominion over them they are scarier by hierarchy. so what's yours Higen?

Higen: puff My sweet naïve Ozwald I am a brave Elisyan Knight I fight and slay monsters with you and save people I do n... why do you have that?!?

Ozwald: opens Higen´s diary and begins reading in a deep voice Dear diary... I saw one of them again in the park today... they were standing quietly banging against an invisible wall created by themselves, with their black and withe sweater, their white and black face paint and lipstick, and that tiny black hat, when they looked at me with their black doll-like eyes I took my chances and ran from the park in a hurry.

Higen: STOP IT!!! I can't hear you lalalalalala,

Ozwald: you are afried of mimes!

Higen: no, no, you listen to me Ozwald, you don't get it I don't like things I can't see they are difficult to deal with, nor incorporeal things I can't fight those, and they have both, they channel the dark arts to create invisible intangible constructs I don't like them!!!

Ozwald: it´s okay big guy if we find a mime in the wild you can hold my hand for support... but if we find one on an invisible skateboard we both run, okay?

Is cold cereal real food and which goes first, milk or cereal?

Alicia: I think it's a real food. I usually can't get myself to eat heavy meals so it's nice to have something that's easy on my stomach. someone will say I'm a lunatic, but I pour the milk before the cereal so I can put the milk carton back into the fridge before I start eating without having to worry about my cereal getting soggy.

Kattar: then how on earth are you supposed to make sure you get the right milk to cereal ratio you madwoman? It's okay to let the cereal absorb a LITTLE bit of milk. Your cereal isn't going to turn into pudding in the 40 seconds it takes to put the milk back in the fridge, and trying to pour cereal into a bowl full of milk just makes a mess.

Andrew: I wasn't aware cereal and milk required a ratio...

Jinho: Or you could just leave the milk out for the five minutes it takes to eat a bowl of cereal. You're gonna need to pour another one. Heaven knows one bowl of cold cereal has never quelled anyone's hunger in the history of ever.

Andrew: (mildly) I pour my milk first, but I can understand both perspectives, I'm not really stuck on it. It's just because my older sister always used to do milk first so it's what I'm used to. My auntie used to tell me I was a crazy person for doing milk first, "what do you think you are, a little heathen?" but she was always joking so...

Jinho: Also cereal is not food.

Kattar: I agree, it's more of a dessert.

Alicia: Kattar Moon!

Kattar: It requires a spoon Miss Thang, so according to your definition, it is one.

Andrew: What if you just eat it dry out of hand?

Jinho: Oh heaven.

Kattar: that's a whole 'nother arguement.

Andrew: I think cereal is a light breakfast. Like a piece of toast, or a yogurt, or anything else you eat when you just want a little something to get started in the day. I can't eat anything that light because I burn a lot of energy with my job, but I used to eat it more often when I was little.

Jinho: I was going to say it's kibble for people.

Kattar: Well yeah, it's that too.

Melissa: It's food! And I will eat until the cows come home! Do not tell me I'm too old for fruit loops, or fruity pebbles, or cocoa pebbles or anything else. I'm not about to start eating BRAN FLAKES just because I'm over thirty now. Give me a bowl of fake fruit flavored food dye and a bagel swamped in cream cheese and that's a good day, in my opinion.

Is "drama" a real fiction genre?

Alicia: Of course it is, why wouldn't it be?

Kattar: Because drama literally just means the story has a suspenseful plot. Every story is supposed to have drama or it's not worth watching.

Jinho: I thought drama was the same thing as a telanovela. you know, when there's insanity without a plot.

Alicia: But what about heart warming sweet things? those don't have drama.

Kattar: Usually they still do, even if it's only slight. So I say drama isn't a real genre.

Andrew: I'm gonna have to agree with him. I mean, every drama is just a combination of other genres anyway right? It's either "slice of life," or romance, or fantasy or something, so...

Melissa: Drama is a real genre, don't make me fight you.

Leyelle 2024-05-16 16:43:37 UTC #29

I can get this, except animals shed way too much for me. Their hair will get on your clothes, and I wouldn't want to put back on something with animal hair on it.

ThunderChicken 2024-05-16 17:03:03 UTC #30

I have a dog that sheds so much that she should be bald. I swear that when I sweep out under the bedroom dresser there’s enough hair under there to build another dog - and that’s after only a week! Pet hair is a way of life that I have long ago accepted. Of course almost all of my clothes are black, and so is my dog, so it doesn’t show too terribly…

binahwrites 2024-05-16 20:12:31 UTC #31

Ozwald: yeah, I´m from the underground, and it's as hot as some places in the human realm, so I do consider it food, I do some cereal first then the milk, and finally I add some more cereal so I can have soft and crunchy flakes at the same time (AN: this is how I have mine IRL)

Higen: as a connoisseur of cereal I can say without a trace of doubt that it is, in fact, I have some slides that will explain it and will also answer the follow-up question 6 hours later in conclusion yes is a food and you should do 25% cereal then milk and finally the 75% that's left, you agree right Ozwald? ... OZWALD!"

Ozwald: loudly snoring on his sofa what... what WHAT cereal Titan where!!!

binahwrites 2024-05-16 20:31:29 UTC #32

Higen: I yeah I think that it is, a good story should have some drama in it.

Ozwald: but wouldn't that make it a sub-genre, rather than a full-on genre? I mean, we are reading through the Odyssey in our literature class, which is an epic and a myth but it also has drama.

Higen: but there are stories like Ottelo or Romeo and Juliet where the focus is the drama or the shows we sometimes watch like Legislations and Control where we have police/courtroom/hospital drama on top of some action

Ozwald: I don't think we are qualified for this question we have only been at the human realm for a few months, let's go with yes to the question

(I think picking these three characters was a mistake XD)

3) Irrational fears?
Alec: Don't have any.
Luke: I thought you feared clowns, and carnies.
Alec: Clowns, maybe. As for carnies, I dislike their need to sell me something. I'm a saleman too, of sorts. And those games are scams.
Aldi: I'm deathly afraid of bees and hornets and wasps, and even dragonflies. Any insect with a "hovering" flight pattern. And no, I'm not allergic. Just really don't want to get stung. Accidentally disturbed a hornet's nest as a kid. Not fun.
Luke: I'm afraid of going to the dentist.
Alec: Isn't that pretty common?
Luke: Maybe. But I really don't like how they judge your brushing habits and yell at you if you don't floss.
Aldi: They're not supposed to yell at you.
Luke: Really? Well...that's just part of the fear, then?
Alec: I think you're just excusing yourself for not flossing every day...

4) Is cold cereal real food and which goes first, milk, or cereal?
Alec: If you're talking about that kiddie cereal with all that sugar in it. No, it is not food, just empty calories.
Luke: Aww, you're no fun.
Aldi: What about grits?
Alec: That's a hot cereal. The question is about cold cereals.
Luke: What about the second part?
Aldi: Milk goes first.
Luke: I agree. The latter is a huge waste of milk.
Alec: Who are you?

5) Is "drama" a real fiction genre?
Alec: I live it...every day.
Luke: Don't sound so dramatic, dad.
Alec: What? My business isn't doing too good, which pays for your food and clothes, by the way.
Luke: I work on the farm, dad. Like you and mom used to. Don't accuse me of loafing around. Carl and I do hard work around here.
Alec: Pfft. Try office work for a change. You'll crumble into a heap.
Aldi: I think drama can be it's own thing, but I feel like most drama stories need comedy or light wholesome stuff to balance it out though, else we'd be very depressed by the end, so it's hard to keep to drama as a "one-and-only" thing. Wouldn't you agree, boys?
(Dad/son arguing in bg)

Should pants ever be leather (faux leather counts)? What about sequins on clothes?

Kattar: (flatly) Do not raise your hand, Lise. Alicia lowers her hand. No, sequins do not belong on clothes. A few well placed rhinestones MAYBE, but sequins are scratchy, and when they start falling off they just make a mess and the outfit becomes ugly and unwearable Alicia begins raising her hand. Now my sweetheart here will say- lower your hand Alicia - as she doesn't lower her hand, snickering smirking slightly Alicia lower your hand, we already know you'll wear anything that's even marginally clean.

Alicia: I like sequins and faux leather. I have a faux leather mini skirt I wear when I want to look chic.

Kattar: Okay but that's not the same as leather pants. Leather pants do not belong on anyone.

Melissa: I have to agree. They're too shiny, too tight, too squeaky. Why would anyone wear them? I mean they make you look like you've been drenched in tar or are wearing one of those peel-off charcoal face masks but wrapped around your whole lower body. I mean, you'd need an awfully big one but you get my point. And I guess you'd only need like two of three of them if you're my size anyway, right?

Jinho: Ew.

Andrew: Um...in gentler words than my friend here chose to use, no sequins and no leather pants for me. Of course I'm not going to tell anyone they can't wear what they want to within reason but...

Jinho: Leather pants do not fall within reason, and sequins are visual assault.

Andrew: I think I'll stick with slacks and blue jeans. Jeans are good.

Kattar: Okay, but you have to have at least one black pair of jeans in your closet though.

Andrew: black jeans?

Jinho: Are you kidding, do you know how hot it is in Mexico City?

Leia: Sequins are ehh. I have a pair of leather pants that I like, but they don't fit me particularly well now that I've...rounded out a bit. I think their biggest risk is just how inflexible they are. You can't wear them if you gain even a little bit of weight.

Riley: Yeah but they're gross regardless. I don't do sequins either because I find them gaudy, but I'll occasionally use a bit of glitter or put press on sticky-gems on my nails, though it's not fun on school days cuz...the boy's locker room immediately becomes living hell if you wear makeup and paint your nails. It's like feeding gremlins after midnight and suddenly normal seeming kids are voracious little demons who will tear you apart.

Leia: (puts her hand on his shoulder.)

Higen: ... you are the seamstress Ozwald I think you should answer this one

Ozwald: Is a little bit difficult, at the underground we do not have leather as they do in the human realm for clothing, we wouldn't use very hot fabric, but I have been playing around with it and experimenting with some patterns, I think they should be made into pants if the person wearing it wants to when you do clothing you have to consider the wants and style of the person making the clothing request I have seen some very good leather pants on RuRoll Race worn by the contestants but I don't think I can pull the style off myself

Higen: ... I do not like how they cling to my skin and are super hot, I do wear leggings under my armor but that doesn't feel like the leather pants did, we had some in the clothes Tartaros HQ left for us at our apartment when we arrived I try them one but putting them on and taking them off was a nightmare.

What about sequins on clothes?

Ozwald: all the way yes!!! when you need to leave people with their jaws hanging you clap do clap sequins or rhinestone clap it's very laborious but the clothing tends to look so good!

Higen: worried about how hype Ozwald is acting I... I did see a man on a mechanical horse (BN: Hiegn doesn't know what a motorcycle is) he had a very cool drawing made with sequins on his jacket, I´m going to say yes, now excuse me I need to wrap Ozwald with a heavy blanket before he talks about being on project rightway again.

Ozwald: THE JUDGES ARE NOT READY FOR WHAT I HAVE IN ST-

Ozwald was tackled to the ground and promptly wrapped like a burrito with a weighted blanket by Higen

Leyelle 2024-05-19 12:38:05 UTC #36

Leia: Cold cereal is okay, but you probably want to eat something else with it if you don't want to be hungry for the rest of the day. you really have to eat an unreasonable amount just to feel full for fifteen minutes.

Riley: Cereal is just empty calories. I don't waste my time on it.

Leia:...(a little worried) it's light though, Riley. It's not like you'd gain weight just from eating a little bit.

Leia: I think drama is a real genre. it just implies slice of life but the more...well...dramatic and chaotic slice of life. Cops, suspense etc.

Riley: It's a genre. I don't read or watch it, but it's a real genre.

7 What's your ideal type? What fashion statement/style do you find most attractive?

Kattar: (flushing violently and looking a little irritated) I don't think I really have an ideal type. I just like someone or I don't. It's not like I have a list of features I could breakdown like that. (Alicia frowns)

Jinho: Okay but when you like someone there are no features that stand out to you as most attractive?

Andrew: Yeah like cute smiles. Or just wide smiles. I'm a sucker for bright eyes too, and easy-laughers.

Jinho: (rolling his eyes) Well, if I ever meet Strawberry Shortcake I'll introduce you two.

Alicia: (frowning still, curtly) I don't have any particular ideal type I can easily pinpoint, but my last boyfriend was pretty slim and on the prettier side, so I suppose I like pretty boys. (now Kattar frowns.)

Jinho: Okay, but both of you have to have a little more detail on what you like specifically.

Andrew: This coming from the man who hasn't listed anything at all.

Jinho: rambles off a long and incredibly specific list in rapid Korean of which the only words anyone (Andrew exclusively since the others don't speak Korean) can decipher are "round faces."

Kattar: Well I like girls wearing a feminine style, with little details like leather jackets and ankle boots to break up the cutesy-ness. But honestly as long as the clothes suit the person wearing them, I don't really care that much.

Alicia: I'm not strict about fashion. There are reasonable limits, but as long as he isn't dressed like Prince I think I'm good.

Andrew: I don't care about fashion really.

Jinho: Anything that requires less than twenty minutes to put on in the morning.

Andrew: there are a lot of things you can put on in twenty minutes though. Like snakeskin.

Jinho: (seems to turn a little gray.) and anything NOT made of snakeskin.

Alicia: I like dark hair and eyebrows, that might count for something too.

Jinho: So your type is yourself?

Alicia: since when do I count as a thin pretty boy? I named two things that I happen to have in common with my ideal type. Any man would sue God if he was born with this body.

Andrew: Kattar still hasn't answered at all.

three days later in the middle of a random conversation

Alicia: So do you seriously not have any kind of type you can narrow down at all?

Kattar: (after a very long exasperated sigh) Fine. I guess I like brown girls with curly hair and curvy figures.

Alicia: (scoffing, shaking her head and pretending to be annoyed) Aishhhhh. You're such a creep.

Kattar: (looks at her dryly and rolls his eyes.)

ThunderChicken 2024-05-19 13:54:14 UTC #38

Question 4: Cereal? Milk?

Carmen (Thunder Chicken): Oh yes, cold cereal is a food. Whether it's a nice bowl of something relatively healthy like Mini Wheats or that indulgence in diabetes known as Fruit Loops, cereal makes for a nice, quick meal and even the occasional snack. As for milk: Cereal first, then milk. We're civilised people here.

Daecon: I owe my very existence to cold cereal. When I was a kid it was the only thing I'd eat. Honestly, I don't know how poor Dion handled raising me. As for milk: You put milk in your cereal? Gross. Milk is gross. I like my cereal dry and by the handful.

Question 5: Is drama a thing?

Carmen (Thunder Chicken): Not only is Drama a thing in fiction, it's essential no matter what the main genre of the story is. It would be hard to find a book with no drama in it. As for whether it makes for a good main topic, I wouldn't intentionally gravitate toward something like that, but it would certainly be valid.

Daecon: I agree with Thunder Chicken here. Drama is everywhere, even in comedy.

Question 6: Leather pants? Sequins?

Carmen (Thunder Chicken): I grew up in the 1980's, when hair metal was a thing. Leather and spandex were everywhere, and I was enjoying every minute of it. Would I wear it personally? No. It looks terribly uncomfortable. But an 80's hair metal dude decked out in leather and spikes? Oh my, yes! Now, as for sequins, nope. That's more a 70's thing and it's a little too flashy and gaudy for my taste.

Daecon: Absolutely! While I'm much (much, much) younger than Thunder Chicken I do love everything 80's, especially the styles. Everything was so over the top! . I love the look and feel of leather, and I love how it shows off my... um... assets. Owen and the others tell me now that tight leather pants aren't exactly befitting somebody in my position, so I guess that fun is over, but I swear to God, they can have my tie-dyed shirts and tight acid washed jeans when they peel them off my cold, dead body! Now, sequins? Absolutely not. When I dress, I want it to be me who sparkles, not some tiny sparkly bits on my clothes!

Question 7: What is your ideal type? Fashion, etc?

Carmen (Thunder Chicken): As far as fashion, I think we covered that in the last question! But my ideal type? I like the nerdy type. Preferably shorter than me, with a slight muscular build. With glasses. Ginger hair is a bonus. Smart, caring, a little unsure of himself. The elusive Cute Gay Nerd. Thankfully, this describes my husband (except the ginger hair).

Daecon: Looks at Thunder Chicken You keep your eyes off my Evander!

Carmen (Thunder Chicken): But I invented Evander! And you, too, come to think of it! You were both drawn in ways that I find attractive. Admittedly, Evander is my ideal, but don't worry, you're still hot too. Hell, I gave you wings! Evander doesn't have those!

Daecon: Somewhat mollified Yeah, I guess so. And I will admit, you did a great job on Evander. He's exactly my type. I mean, he is perfect!

Carmen (Thunder Chicken): Well, I drew him to be that way, but you'd still find him to be perfect even if I had drawn him another way because you two are Fated Mates...

Leyelle 2024-05-19 13:59:37 UTC #39

XD, I had to give up sorting things by era a long time ago. I was donated a lot of clothes from my grandmothers generation and once you have an orange blazer with padded shoulders there is no going back

Higen: I like steel types ´cos some are very knightly and Ozwald whispers into Higen´s ear hum... like romantic type? well someone I can count on and they have to be super nice with people, I would like someone who does not use me for my name or title someone who sees beyond that.

Ozwald: I guess someone that I feel safe around to be myself, that won't judge me, a good listener would be nice too.

hat fashion statement/style do you find most attractive?

Higen: I don't think is the style of clothing they wear I think is the confidence they display in whatever they wear that catches my eye.

Ozwald: yeah confidence is attractive, if someone displays so much confidence in themselves I think they would look attractive in any clothing style
